new from europe (arthritis and vetoryl?) - Ian, Flynn and Enya have passed

i can imagine tipper suffering from not being able to walk outside. they need it and we need it too. to clear the head and to exercise the body.
and especially for our cush-dogs to stay in shape.
i have to walk one more time in the drizzle before going to bed.
take your rest because we can not afford to get sick.

Yeah!!! Today it is supposed to go up to 40. Tipper will be able to walk if it does.It really changes her attitude after she walks. She was hungry last nite and moving around the bed early this morning so her cortisol is on the rise. I am trying to catch up on all my things for myself. I never have time to do things for myself. I am usually doing something for the critters, the house, or cooking. I need some time for a pedicure and soak in the tub. Hope I an is still well and got over his tiredness. Blessings

hi patti, so glad that you were able to walk twice with your dogs. it makes them happy, and us too!
but we need to take care for our selves too!
so, no housekeeping tomorrow, but patti-time!
ian is still a bit tired, but that can also be due to his new comforter which he likes very much.
today it is already 2 months since flynn died. i am so busy with work and my other animals, that i haven't had the time to really grieve.
the breeder of flynn's mom has a new litter coming up [this summer] . family of flynn.
but a] i don't have the money, b] two golden oldies at home and 3] i am not so much of a puppy person. but if she wants to keep one of them, she is looking for a foster home..........

It doesn't seem possible that your dear Flynn has been gone 2 months now. That is not good that you have not had time to grieve. He was beautiful, and I know how you must miss him. I always wish our companion animals had lives as long as ours. They are family members and in our case all the family we have.
It can be more traumatic losing them then a person. Tipper is miffed as she thought she would be walking, and it is too cold for her. I hope for an early spring, but dread the thought of storms. Blessings
Patti

yes, our pets are our family, but they leave us way too soon.
poor tipper, no walks today.
i have to walk my dogs now before going to bed.
it is almost freezing with a cold wind, but they do nothing in the garden, so i have to go...brrrr!!

yes it is 1 am overhere and it is ian's 13th birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i am still in contact with the owners of one sister and a brother.
his brother was diagnosed with intestinal cancer. they did operate , and he came out fine! as far as the specialist could see, it did not spread.
one brother died at age 9 from prostate cancer and one brother was run over by a car.
they still know me when i visit them although they left at 8 weeks of age.
no pills yet, i don't know which trick to use anymore. after being on vetoryl, he is more picky than ever.......

Happy Birthday Ian!
I hope you guys can have a nice walk today for his birthday.
So glad his brother came though his surgery okay and the girl is doing fine too.

hugs,
Sharlene and Molly Muffin

Happy Birthday, Ian!!

thank you!!

Happy Birthday Ian!
